After realizing the seriousness of the problem, Zhou Ruhai did not dare to neglect. He stood up, took two steps forward, stared at the two police officers, and said with lingering anger: "You two are lucky today, look at it. For the sake of business, I will let you off for now. If you come to our house in the future and don't understand the rules again, don't blame me for being rude."
The two police officers had given up hope that they could complete their mission. When they heard what Zhou Ruhai said, the two police officers suddenly realized that if they withstood the pressure and worked harder, maybe things would turn around.
"Thank you, Mr. Zhou, for being so kind. Even if the two of us are embarrassed in the future, we will never dare to talk nonsense again." The two police officers lay on the ground, not even daring to raise their heads.
Zhou Ruhai was very satisfied with the attitude of the two police officers in admitting their mistakes. He turned around, looked at Lin Ajiao, and said in a consultative tone: "Daughter-in-law, you have already seen what happened. You young people are so confused." Come on, you are more considerate than us older people. In your opinion, should I wake up Ming'er?"
Before the father-in-law made a decision, he was able to ask his opinion in front of outsiders. This was already a great deal of face to Lin Ajiao.
Lin Ajiao rolled her eyes. She didn't have stage fright, and immediately replied: "Dad, you have been working outside for so many years, and you are definitely better than us juniors in terms of work ability and experience and knowledge, so for this matter, you I must have an idea in mind.
But at such a critical moment, since you think highly of your daughter-in-law and come to ask my opinion, I can't help but be shameless and express my opinion. "
The reason why Zhou Ruhai asked Lin Ajiao for her opinion was because he had been struggling in his heart and didn't know what to do.
Seeing Lin Ajiao praising him so much, Zhou Ruhai felt very happy, so he said with a smile: "Daughter-in-law, there is no need to be too modest. If you have any ideas, just tell me."
Mrs. Zhou stood nearby, feeling a little unbalanced, because she felt that even if her master wanted to find someone to discuss countermeasures, he should talk to herself.
"Dad, I think we should wake up my husband." Lin Ajiao did not beat around the bush and directly expressed her thoughts, "After all, this matter is related to that case. What if things go wrong when my husband is not around?" , my husband will also be implicated."
In fact, Zhou Ruhai had already made up his mind just now and planned to send someone to wake up Zhou Ming, but when he thought about it later, he hesitated again because he felt that if he took over everything and made the decision alone, what would happen if something happened later? If it proves that his judgment is wrong, won't he have to take the blame?
It was precisely because of this idea that he wanted to drag someone to take responsibility with him. He didn't discuss it with his wife because he didn't want to drag her into the water.
After hearing what Lin Ajiao said, Zhou Ruhai felt extremely happy, because after the decision came out of his daughter-in-law's mouth, even if it turned out to be wrong, it was his daughter-in-law who bore the responsibility, as well as him. not related.
"Well, since you think so, daughter-in-law, then I respect your opinion." Zhou Ruhai followed suit and said quickly, "Hurry up and wake up Ming'er."
Lin Ajiao froze on the spot, thinking that her father-in-law was too sophisticated, right? He was clearly discussing with me just now, so why did he directly say that he respects my opinion as soon as he expressed his opinion? Could it be that his discussion with me was a trap to deliberately induce me to express my opinion?
After thinking of this possibility, Lin Ajiao suddenly broke into a cold sweat. She had to admit in her heart that her father-in-law's move was really too clever.
In a few words, the father-in-law not only made a fool of himself, but also successfully separated him from this problem. Even if the current decision proved to be wrong in the future, it had nothing to do with him. After all, he finally said The person who decides this is yourself.
Mrs. Zhou watched with cold eyes and soon discovered the purpose of her husband's discussion with his daughter-in-law. She couldn't help but sigh in her heart: "The old man still cares about me and didn't ask me to take the blame at the critical moment."
Although Lin Ajiao spent a long time and finally figured out her father-in-law's conspiracy, it was too late. After all, the deal was already done. No matter how capable she was, it was impossible to save the situation.
Faced with this situation, Lin Ajiao did not complain or get angry. She just felt that she had been too careless just now, so that she capsized in the gutter and was plotted by her master.
She secretly made up her mind to be more careful when speaking and doing things in the future. On the other hand, she said goodbye to her parents-in-law with a smile on her face and went straight to the backyard.
Zhou Ruhai looked at the back of his daughter-in-law leaving, and felt a little uncomfortable in his heart. He thought to himself, was it too despicable for me to do this? My daughter-in-law is allowed to take the blame for no reason. She is so young. If she can't bear the pressure and does something stupid, how can I be worthy of my son?
He lowered his head depressedly and saw the two police officers still kneeling on the ground, so he said angrily: "Why are you two still lying on the ground? Why don't you stand up quickly? My son will be here later, you two Please behave yourself when you speak."
"Yes, I understand, little one." The two messengers stood up in a hurry and answered cautiously.
The two of them stood aside, not daring to take another step. Both of them were thinking that this errand was really difficult.
In fact, before they came to Zhou's house, they always thought it was a good job. After all, yesterday Yi Ming had just made an unparalleled achievement. Today, they came to their house and asked him to return to the Yamen. In case Zhou Yiming was still happy. However, if they are in a good mood, they may be rewarded with a few taels of silver as drink money.
However, ideals are very full and reality is very skinny. After arriving here, they discovered that this job was not done by human beings. They hadn't even met Zhou Yiming yet. Just meeting his old father almost made the two of them miserable. Take off a layer of skin.
The two of them really didn't dare to think about whether they would be able to leave the Zhou family alive if Yi Ming was woken up later and came to see them angry.
After all, no matter how cruel Zhou Yiming's old father is, he is still an old man and has no martial arts skills. If he starts to be cruel, he will at most just scold them, and insults are almost useless to shameless people like them. Lethality.
But Zhou Ming is different. He has extremely high martial arts skills and a very bad temper. If he is unhappy and hits you twice, ordinary people without martial arts skills may lose their lives.
The two police officers were always on tenterhooks while waiting for Zhou Ming, and they both felt very regretful. They both felt that they really shouldn't have accepted this job out of greed. It was better now. Not only would they not be able to get the reward, but they would also It's possible that he might even lose his life.
Although Lin Ajiao walked straight to the backyard after coming out of the study, she was also very uneasy on the way. After all, she had already called Zhou Ming once before. At that time, Zhou Ming got so angry that he almost hit someone. Er appeared in time and rescued himself, but the consequences were really unimaginable.
If she calls him again now, given his temper, Lin Ajiao can imagine how angry he will be.
Although she knew it was very dangerous to go there, Lin Ajiao knew in her heart that she had to do this. After all, if she missed Zhou Ming's important event, the fate of the entire Zhou family would be greatly affected.
Lin Ajiao walked to the door of her and Zhou Ming's room, quietly opened the door, walked in quietly, and then tiptoed to the bed.
Zhou Yiming was lying on the bed and had fallen into a deep sleep. He was snoring because he was so asleep.
Lin Ajiao looked at Zhou Yiming sleeping soundly, and she really couldn't bear to wake him up, but the matter was urgent and she had to do it.
"Ms. sir..."
She called softly.
Zhou Ming did not respond.
"Ms. sir, wake up." She raised her voice and called again.
At this time, Zhou Yiming finally moved, then turned his head, opened his eyes with difficulty, and looked at Lin Ajiao: "What's wrong?"
Seeing that Zhou Yiming did not lose her temper, Lin Ajiao finally let go of her hanging heart. She immediately walked to the bedside and said in a gentle tone: "Ms. sir, someone from the inspection yamen in the south of the city has come. He said that the adults in the yamen are here to invite you." You go back to the Yamen, I have something important to tell you."
Zhou Yiming was lying on the bed sleeping soundly just now. Suddenly he felt like someone was calling him in his dream. He turned around subconsciously and saw a person standing in front of the bed.
He was startled, and then he woke up completely.
After he woke up, he realized that the person standing next to him was none other than Lin Ajiao.
After being woken up this time, Zhou Yiming did not get angry because he really didn't dare to mess around after what he had just learned.
After listening to Lin Ajiao's words, he sat up suddenly and quickly got dressed, because he knew very well that with the courage of Deng Tong and Xia Dezhang, if they didn't encounter something important, they would definitely not dare to send someone to call. Own.
"Who did they send? How many people came?" Zhou Ming asked while getting dressed.
"There are two people in total, both dressed as government servants. I don't know who they are," Lin Ajiao told the truth.
Zhou Yiming nodded, quickly put on his clothes, then turned around and said to Lin Ajiao: "Madam, something big may have happened in the Yamen. It seems I have to go. Don't go anywhere at home. Protect us." Mom and dad.
We captured so many thieves from the North last night. If they have accomplices, they will definitely not give up. And these people are not capable of going to the Yamen to rob the prison. The only thing they can do is to take revenge on the families of us police officers.
So you must be careful at home. "
Hearing what Zhou Yiming said, Lin Ajiao couldn't help but feel nervous, but she did not show this emotion, but still showed a calm look: "Don't worry, my husband, you just go about your business. I’m at home.”
